Not as bad but last night I ran over a discharge hose that will cost me $50 to fix and the next lawn completly tore off a wooden gate that will cost me $75 to fix.

Its the time to do fix these that really hurts. First time all season I did any damage.

Maybe you should consider carrying some Slime and a small compressor with you. It's helped me more than a couple times. I had a couple flats in one week, at the beginning of the season. Went through and slimed ALL tires.

without bad luck you'd have no luck at all. Sorry to hear about your bad days, hope things turned out ok.

I think i personally would've kept this information to myself, but what the heck? The name of this thread is "your worst day" and well.... you DID have a "shatty" day.... or do i mean somehting else? ;)

So there were no bushes around?? or really BIG trees to hide behind?

That sounds like every Monday for me.;)

I got home last night to find out I took 8 roofing nails. I had a flat (new) trailer tire, Flat ztr tire, and 6 nails in 3 brand new Z tires. Yeah, plug kits are real handy. Make sure you get lots of plugs and goo, you never know when you will need lots.

No trees in rear yard. Residential Customer and she was home to make things worse. One of those things where you think i know i can make it just 5 more minutes. Then the following week the customer asked me why i didnt knock on door to get my check. I of course told her it slipped my mind and i didnt think about it b/c of the tight schedule we were in. Didnt want to ask to use her restroom. Come into a clean house with grass all over me and stink up the house to bat. Anyway i dont think the same anymore. Just a little growl and I pick up a leave. Plenty of scheduled "water stops" now throughout day. Damn it just sucked to say the least. The worst part was the ride home and looking at my helps face when he asked almost at the sametime. Where did you get into mud? And man did you sh!t? Thinking it was just a bad fart. God how I wished. Anyway...I would take a flat tire anyday.
